Still here....

....but not much new. 
Anticipating the arrival of my first grandbaby in December.  Had the baby shower on November 7th.  I am soo glad I decided to hold it in a restaurant banquet room!  The food was great, everyone had a good time and I didn't have to clean up!
Working. 
Trying to find time to sew (on my own stuff). 
Trying to stay warm.

Happy quilting.

I Must Have Got Lost....

I can't believe it's been almost a year since I posted! Holy Cow!
It's been a busy year, I guess. LOL
Let's see...
  • Daughter Leslie transferred from UW-River Falls to UW-Green Bay. She didn't like being so far from home.
  • I made a king size memory quilt from my father-in-law's old clothes.  It was a gift for Mark's mom.  We lost "Grandpa" in Feb. 2008 to cancer.
  • Son Matt & fiance Becky moved in with us for a few months.
  • My longarm went back to the factory for a much needed overhaul. A long story, but it made it back home safely and is running good!
  • Matt & Becky moved out and into an apartment in Green Bay.
  • Leslie moved out and into an apartment in Green Bay.
  • We harvested the garden. Hubby Mark canned salsa, pickles, apple pie filling, tomato juice, italian sauce, corn, etc.
  • Our puppy Tucker isn't a pup anymore. He turned a year old in July. And he's rotten (as in spoiled).
  • I turned 50 in August.
  • Mark bought me a laptop for my birthday! A much needed (and desired) replacement for the dinosaur I was using before.
  • Matt & Becky are pregnant. I'm going to be a Grandma in December!
  • It's a girl! LOL
  • My mom and Dad came for a visit. They are on a 2 month trek in their RV. Lucky them!
  • Other than all that, besides longarm quilting at home, I've been working part time at the quilt shop plus teaching classes, leading clubs, learning how to set up and run the booth at a quilt show, and making shop samples.
Sorry I was away so long. As soon as I get pictures transferred from the old computer to my laptop, I'll post my quilting accomplishments from the last year.
piecin' love!
